The thrilling conclusion to the URFitational

Riot·3/31/2015, 1:26:39 AM·3 votes·112,398 views

Two rival League teams, not at all the same, in hallowed halls, where we broadcast our stream, from ancient grudge to grand final stage, where first blood makes for broken hearts and crushed dreams.

The moment we’ve all awaited longer than we even knew what it was we waited for... is upon us. We prepare to embark on a journey to the pinnacle of human endeavor. The two most prestigious clubs in gaming have clawed and clambered their way to the top of the most venerable, historic tradition of the modern age: the URFitational.

Fighting in the azure corner, having made their name dominating checkers play in the early 1800s but with their current crop reaping years of careful seeding in the field of League of Legends, the Ye Olde League Organization looks to continue their success with an URFitational crown.

And clad in crimson are the less-longstanding but not less-distinguished scions of skillshots, the Society of Worth Assessing Gentlemen. With their rugged history in stickball, they rely on the savage instincts that propelled them to just under the top. They’ll be looking to summit the mount with a victory in the final.

Join a veritable who’s who from the expert ranks of shoutcasters and our esteemed hosts as they break down all of the action directly from the secret location of the honorable tournament itself. Aim your FM receivers to lolesports.com on April 1 at 3 PM PDT and experience all of the deep strategy, innovative tactics, and smashingly slow gameplay the New Ultra Rapid Fire update delivers in the Grand Finals of the 2015 URFitational!

In the words of the traditional opening Thoreau quote of the URFitational, “I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die discover that I had not lived.”

Oh man this looks so awesome I can't wait. I lag a lot so I always die, but I think with NURF mode I will finally be able to win again. summoner 4

I hope that NURF is a thing for at least a day, because I really want to try it at least once. Leblanc

It's too bad team M.L.G. and 420 were beaten in the semifinals, good luck to both teams S.W.A.G. and Y.O.L.O.

Riot you will be the most hated company on the face of the planet if you don't bring back the actual URF by trolling your entire player base after a years begging of bringing it back.

Im pretty sure that it will ust be regular urf. This is probably a april fools joke. If Riot did do this there would be way to many people that leave league. I mean who would wanna play this gamemode? (No offense for people who do wanna play this) But i mean. Most people would get mad beacause they're expecting URF. Pls let this be a april fools joke.

This is fake . It was already stated that NURF would come in the 32 of march.

Some people had not played URF Mode though tempting cus of the many videos made of it. It would be nice if Both URF and NURF were open at same time, though they never do two modes at once it would be nice for the community. Since NURF is a new game mode it should be on the Normal PVP Game list while URF should be on the Custom Game list (Temporarily). Sounds Fair? Since some wants to try NURF, and the majority wants URF. Wouldn't mind both at once. Draven
